Fineness is expressed in terms of the percentage of a material that passes through the 90-micron IS sieve. This measurement indicates the particle size distribution of the material, with finer materials having a higher percentage passing through the sieve. For instance, if a sample shows that 80% of its particles pass through the 90-micron sieve, it is considered relatively fine. This sieve is commonly used in various industries to assess the quality and suitability of powders and aggregates.

Numbers expressed using exponents are called powers. When writing a number expressed as an exponent, the number is called the base.
A power.
Simply power

The traditional way of testing gypsum for fineness involves rubbing up with turpentine
You can sift flour using a sieve.
The purity of gold is measured in karats or fineness. Karats range from 1 to 24, with 24 karat gold being the purest. Fineness is expressed as a percentage, with 100% being equivalent to 24 karats. Gold purity can be determined by using testing kits, electronic testers, or by sending samples to a professional assayer.
Blaine fineness is a measure of the fineness of cement or other powdered materials, expressed in terms of the surface area in square centimeters per gram (cm²/g). It is typically determined using a specific air permeability test, which reflects how finely the material is ground. A common standard for Blaine fineness is that a cement with a Blaine value of around 300 m²/kg corresponds to a mesh size of about 90-100 microns. However, the exact mesh equivalent can vary depending on the material and the testing conditions.
A wet sieve analysis involves using water to wash finer particles through the sieve, while a dry sieve analysis does not involve any added moisture and relies on natural particle movement through the sieve openings. Wet sieve analysis is typically used for cohesive materials, while dry sieve analysis is more commonly used for non-cohesive materials.
You can't sepertate jam with raisins with a sieve because jam is lumpy so it will not fall through the sieve. But raisins are too, the holes in a sieve are to small for a raisis to fit through.
Using magnets or a sieve?
You can use a sieve to find all the primes numbers between 2 and any given number n.
The metal sieve Bob used to sift out the unwanted rocks from his planting soil, was made of a fine stainless steel mesh.
Sieving the soil samples using a 2mm sieve is necessary to remove larger debris and aggregates from the sample. This ensures that the soil sample is homogenous and representative of the site being analyzed. It also helps in standardizing the particle size for further testing and analysis.
Sieve analysis is a method that is typically used in civil engineering to determine the size of particles and how those particles are distributed. A discussion about sieve analysis could be conducted after using a series of sieves to filter out different particles of sand.
All numbers can be expressed using exponents.
